Rest and Relaxation, When No One's Around [Open]

Satellizer had enough training, and she wasn't getting anywhere thinking about the battle. She had done what she could and she wasn't going to make any progress by just re-running the simulation over and over again. It was time to clear her head, and seeing as there was no Burger Queen on board, she'd have to settle for second choice.

The bathhouse. Of course, she'd wait till a time that there wouldn't be anyone around, or at least she thought there wasn't. Either way, she made her way into it, changing out of her clothing and draping a large towel around herself. Soon she found herself relaxing in the hot water, sinking down until only the her head was above water. The comforting warmth made her smile, it almost felt surreal, as if she was enjoying a hot spring back home... though last time she was in a hot spring, someone had sneaked up on her... "Stupid Rana...." she mumbled as a blush rose on her cheeks.

Satellizer wasn't the only one looking for relaxation. Still unsure of what type of hobbies she should take up and after a day's worth of training, Sofia had also found herself at the bathhouse.

Customs at home were pretty simple, in a village that was barred from the rest of the world. So Sofia had no towel at all, and simply plopped herself in a small bath a bit farther away from her with a loud splash.

The splash startled Satella from her thoughtful daze, making her jump up slightly and look up towards the sound of the splash. Once she was sure it wasn't an attacker, she relaxed a bit, holding on to her slipping towel and looking at her curiously.

She was fairly new to the ship herself, so she didn't expect to have met everyone, or if she ever would. This girl, was one she hadn't seen before. She gave her a simple nod, still blushing from the surprise before settling down again.

Sofia gave her a nod back (as her mother had always taught her to be polite to everyone she met), and, being from a little town that honestly didn't care of the entire village got together to wash up, gave her a wave.

Satella returned the wave, if a bit awkwardly, not being the most sociable of people... Manners dictated that a lady should at least address the greeting.

"Good ah..." what the hell was the time here... She never knew how to tell... so she'd figure it'd be evening since she had been training all day.

"Evening." she added hurriedly.

"Oh is it evening?" she replied back, leaning back into the waters, now that introductions were over. "I can never tell in this place." The water was nearing her neck.

"This is pretty relaxing. I've never sat in water this hot before."

Satellizer nodded, relaxing in turn now that she'd gotten that out of the way... She still felt awkward of course... socializing always was for her.

"Yeah, only way I can 'keep track of time' is by following my own time... And even that isn't accurate. I just try to keep a firm schedule so that I have an idea of what I do when, and where..." Why was she talking so much...? Maybe it was the relaxing water.

"They don't have hot springs where you're from?" she asked curiously.

She turned over before talking, letting her feet dangle in the water.

"My village was tiny. We only had a cold river for most of our bathing. We could heat up water using fire magic, but only a few of us could do it at all and the limited quantities were better suited for food." Talking abut her village brought back memories good, and bad.

"How was your world like?"

Being asked to speak about her world... was really strange for Satella... Before the Nova, her world was normal... well normal for her, they didn't even think there would be other life, let alone other worlds.

"It was... Well we didn't have magic. That was believed to be myths and legends, though some cultures claimed they did have the lost arts. Most people didn't believe in it." Whether Satella believed in it or not was not apparent. "It was a rather peaceful world, for the most part. We had conflict between countries and such, but for the most part, it wasn't anything incredibly serious." Some would say she'd underestimating it, but hearing about other worlds had made her believe that they had it pretty easy... that was until the Nova arrived.

"It was fairly technologically advanced, but not to the point that we had consumed all the natural habitats of the world. We had vast mountains, immense oceans, frozen wastelands, deserts... well all sorts of environments really." Why was she being so vocal all of a sudden? This wasn't like her... Again, she supposed it was the relaxing nature of a hot bath.

"I see," she answered, listening to each piece of information carefully and with respect. "My world was also peaceful...for the most part. That is until Psaro the Manslayer tried to find the Secret of Evolution and become a creature so powerful it would wipe humanity from this world." It was a long story, really.

"There has always been magic in my world, although not all humans could learn it. You were either born with the ability or not. A few, like Ragnar and Princess Alena who traveled with me, did not mind this and used their swords and fists into battle with much more skills than someone who had spent their years learning to cast spells."

Sofia would agree with Satella. Baths were pretty relaxing.

"They seem like they were good companions," Not that she'd know herself... she had always avoided teams, or people to get close to.

"Your world seems much like some of the books you read in my world... It's really interesting how I never thought I'd hear of magic and such in something outside of a story..." Now she was growing curious herself.

"What did you enjoy in your world?"
